In the conservative community of Interlochen, MI, a man was feeling despondent so he called 911. He told the 911 operator that he had a gun and was going to commit suicide. The 911 operator immediately contacted the local police.

When the police arrived, they surrounded the house and began negotiations with the man inside. They wanted him to put down his guns and come out of the house. He, on the other hand, kept threatening to kill him self.

After several hours of negotiations, the police shot and killed the man. I guess they considered him a threat to himself.  I guess they call that “death by policeman”.
